Leonard Cohen - Leonard Cohen & Canadian Poetry

Poem

Poem
I heard of a man who says words so beautifully
That if he only speaks their name
Women give themselves to him

If I am dumb beside your body
While silence blossoms like tumours on our lips
It is because I hear a man climb stairs
And clear his throat outside our door
